Default Getting the windows tinted...

Got quoted tonight for my window tint today by a local shop (local for me is 20 miles away or less, I'm in the sticks!). He quoted me on the high side, he said he's sure that it's going to be cheaper. It's going to be 200 bucks for that big ol rear hatch window, both 1/4 windows, both side windows and a 6" strip on the front window, 20% tint, warranty and all that good stuff. I'm sure that if I went into Denver I could get it cheaper but Denver is 50 miles away, it's not worth the drive. Anyone have pics of a full 20% tint? I can't wait, I think it's gonna look bad ***.

You might wanna check on the state law where you live just so you don't have to have it taken off if you get pulled over. Some cops are picky about that. I know in ohio the limit is 35% all the way around. I don't like the strip on the windshield either.

Dang, I don't have the hookups you do, I don't think that it's a waste personally... but to each his own I suppose.

Lifetime warranty 5% is $60 here for a 5.0. I get 5% on everything. I just had my Powerstroke Crew Cab done for $100 about 2 months ago.

Kinda hard to see out the back window at night isn't it?
